Haresh Rajpal, it is the good news that you activated . It let me belived the website is on working.
Save | Cancel
Haresh Rajpal, you cant create an account at animiz.com because the site is still down. You cant use the cached site because the signup button is non functional. No one here is having problems downloading the software, the issue is not being able to create an account at animiz so you can finish registering the software.
Save | Cancel
Haresh Rajpal, I could not contact the site working in Win8.1
In Win 10 all went fine, also in a WinXP VM on Win10.
And in Win8.1 I could contact the site with a TOR-browser. The whole site was OK.
Why? maybe a setting in IP? or . . .
Save | Cancel
1.5 hours left to go and I still cant access their site.
They haven't responded to my email from yesterday.
Save | Cancel
Rob Jourdain, google Animiz , by the small black triangle, click that and click "Cached", the links run from there.
Save | Cancel
Elina, I did that yesterday and the links didn't work from the cached page. I'm unlikely to use a program that will want payment in 6 months, and you can not access their website or support by email anyway.
Save | Cancel
Robin Jourdain, why i can find the website work??? which browser you use? Chorme?
Save | Cancel
Elina, I tried in Chrome and IE
Save | Cancel
Rob Jourdain, i used chrome and it works well.
Save | Cancel
Elina, I've tried chrome, edge and opera and I'm still getting the apache 2 test page so there's no way to sign up to create an acct in order to register the software. Even using the cache site doesnt allow you to sign up for an account which is what you need to do in order to register the software.
Save | Cancel
Jerome, it is a pity. but if you want to use the software, you can send an email to support@animiz.com to ask them to manually register an account for you . And then you can log in the desktop software.
Save | Cancel
Elina, I have been in contact with them. They told me to use the cached site to create an account. After I told them using the cache site is useless they finally asked if they could manually create an account for me. This one is going to be close! lol
Save | Cancel
Jerome, no , even the giveaway activity ended, there is a time for the users to activate the account. From now to October 20, you can also create the acocunt and activate the account as standard user.
Save | Cancel
Elina, yes but considering the site is still down with this apache 2 test who knows if they will still have this problem for the next 10 days. They manually created an account for me, sent the confirmation email when I clicked the link it send me back to their site with another 404 error. They are definitely not instill confidence in me.
Save | Cancel
Jerome, did you sign up on the website prior to using the software.. not from the software itself thats what i did
Save | Cancel
I did have to restart my computer in order to install this properly. Everyone needs to note that this is a 6-month license for their "Standard" paid subscription ($29/mo.)
Save | Cancel
Everything went as smooth as it should. downloaded - signed up - confirmed email - installed and running in less then 2 minutes looking forward to playing with this! only shame is that you cant use it for commercial!
Thanks guys

Nigel Aslett, how did you get a confirmation email when the site is still down (I just checked http://www.animiz.com still has the apache test showing)?
Save | Cancel
Jerome, Nigel Aslett, sorry for the delay.. got it in less then a min. check your spam folders /promotions if using gmail type emails look for subject "Confirm your Animiz account"
hope this helps
Save | Cancel
Nigel Aslett, wasnt able to register because the apache 2 test issue going on their site. I had to have support manually create an account for me and when they sent me the confirmation email the link in the email didnt work due to the problems on their site. They had manually confirm my account.
I give their support 4 out of 5 stars
Save | Cancel
Installed in Windows 8.1. Registered on website, ran program and entered code. Works fine. Just made a small test animation and saved as mp4 file. Was a bit slow saving but 'patience is a virtue' as they say. I have used Flash design programs in the past so the layout of the program is similar and fairly easy to use, but I imagine not so for the casual computer user. Obvious from many of the other comments that a lot of GOTD users just can't cope with anything other than the most simple of installations and programs, which is a shame as this is quite a nice program.
Save | Cancel
Have followed instructions, re-installed, but still cannot open site to register - complete waste of time! Very, very disappointed, will uninstall - wanted to try this out, shame the support was not available for the demand that was created and crashed their site OR just took the site down?

Wieder ein Grafikprogramm, bei dem ich nur die Free-Version erhalte und die versprochene Standard-Version nicht aktivieren kann. Ich habe einen Account erstellt, das Programm installiert und gestartet. Nach Anklicken des Login-Buttons musste ich feststellen, dass es unmöglich ist, eine Email-Adresse einzugeben. Jeder Versuch ein "@" zu tippen, beendet schlagartig das Programm. Für Spaß habe ich dann mal "Passwort vergessen" angeklickt und bin auf einer "Error 404" Seite gelandet. Kaufen kann man das Programm übrigens auch nicht. Egal welche Version ich auch wähle: Nichts passiert!
Vielleicht versuche ich mein Glück morgen früh noch mal. Möglicherweise hat Animiz den offenbar zusammengebrochenen Internet-Auftritt dann wieder zum Laufen gebracht.

Please send me the info/link for downloading the giveaway software

Hello André,
this is the case that we see pretty often among the users.
Our download letters include two active links - one to start the program download and another to click if you received the letter by a mistake and you want to receive no more letters from us, so called ignore list.
Your email is now in this ignore list, which means that somehow before you clicked the wrong link and added yourself to the list.
Your email was removed from it, so please try to request the download link one more time.
There should be no problems with getting the letter this time, but we kindly ask the users to pay more attention to the actions they perform.

To install, deactivate antivirus. Did so on Win10 Ultimate 64bit & got the Free version instead of Standard version, even though verified with email link. Will trial Free version anyway, but not impressed with this offer at all. Certainly would not subscribe at $29/month for Standard.

Can someone point me at the most likely free program to do that the simplest way?

J, The 'easiest' would be to do the animation in Powerpoint, then convert that to a GIF. This can then be uploaded to a webpage for easy access. Mobiles can view GIFs, so as long as the GIF is small (in filesize) it should work OK.

Gurudas, it has been fixed.

okay first off it was easy to sign up and install.
it is not really all that simple - sure it is kinda simple in the same way as a music sequencer is simple,
i have tried a couple of different animation like programs from flash to 3D (like blender) this is kind of oversimplified to a point where it becomes time consuming hard to do simple tasks, but i guess one gets used to it.
positive:
it seems to be working
it has not crashed on me
negative:
1024x576 that is just way to low, especially since it is a 29$ a month plan
no markings on what you can use and what is a higher tier, you find out by pop-up, that is just annoying - and a sign of a crappy business practice, it is annoying on free apps and programs - but in paid software.
it says, among others, standard has 18 roles, you cant visually see which you can use, so you have to try every one, i can tell you of the 41 roles 16 does not give you a pay us more pop-up, but i guess 16 is close enough to 18, it animation not math.
all in all as for being a paid program, it seems really amputated, unless you go for top tier - and with the base program being what it is i don't think it is worth it, if this is what you get for 29$ a month i would feel more than a bit screwed.
And here a quick google search for free alternative

Ootje, I am using windows 10 and had this with IE and Chrome. I could reach a cached site, but links would not work. I have emailed their support so will wait to see if I get a reply today. This doesn't bode well for a company that will want you to pay for the software in 6 months time.
Save | Cancel
Rob Jourdain, It is strange.
I did open the cached site in Win8.1.
And when I ask to download the demo-program, this does not exits any-more.
And even stranger: I just started a Torbrowser and could open www.animiz.com without any problem.
Also I could different pages of this site. Also the download.
And in the normal browser in Win8.1 nothing found.
There is something strange, which I can not explain.
It could be trouble with my ISP, one of the best in the Netherlands.
And just trouble in Win8.1 and not in Win10.

The fact that it looks like the free edition has a watermark is enough to keep me from trying this offer out. And it also says this is a standard 6 months plan. The price ( $174.00 ) might be a bit steep for those who are looking for this kind of tool also. I am still interested in seeing what others have to say about it.

I have high hopes for this as I download it now (10min)
But... I visited their site only to learn that even on this GOTD version we will not be able to export as HD video. and so does the free version.
So what the catch?
Save | Cancel
adif, So...
It's a 32b software. it takes ~580MB but can be directed to any drive. I export one 1024X576 WMV that was at 3Mb/s, it's OK not great. Then I exported same thing as mp4 it was only at 450Kb/s ... terrible. The layout is nice, and need to explore. I don't have immediate use for it so I guess the free version could be just fine.
Save | Cancel
adif, Well,
It doesn't like many of my fonts, and it doesn't support RTL nor up/down typing (as far as I can see)
**Export to aniGIF is ridicules at only 144p. Is this size still valid in 2017?
